On Friday, September 29th, the Montrose High School Band will be competing at the Watchdog Marching Festival in Beresford. Bands will compete as traditional or show. We are competing in Class B – Traditional. There are 28 total groups that will be marching on Friday ranging in age from middle school to college. (Augustana University will be featured at the end of the parade) It will be a great parade – featuring a lot of great bands from around our area!
